Experimento Egocéntrico de Instrumentación Virtual2008

This audiovisual electroacoustic work is based on my violin octet Transfiguraciones de Calostro. Seven of the eight violin parts are recorded. I work on these tracks and
electronically distribute them accordingly in space. The violinist plays the remaining violin part live together with the recorded ones. The result is an ensemble where the eight
players are the same person.

An audio-only version of the Egocentric Experiment of Virtual Instrumentation was presented on Friday, May 29th, 2009 at the concert-hall of the University of Music
of Saarland in Saarbrücken, Germany.

The complete audiovisual version emphasizes the same concept of virtual proposal, showing us the same musician multiplied on stage, as he plays or as he waits. The
piece invite us to rethink the way we understand and accept reality.

In collaboration with with violinist Tigran Hakhumyan and visual artist Julian Bergheim.
